Through a recent press release, Samsung confirmed its new and revamped Galaxy Player boasting a 5.8 inch touch screen display. Previously, we heard about a leaked Galaxy Player about ten days ago and today the rumor has been confirmed.

Expected to officially debut at IFA 2012, the Galaxy Player operates on Android 4.0, includes a 2500 mAh battery, TouchWiz, 16GB or 32GB of storage space, an unannounced processor, WiFi, and a front facing camera. Within the next couple of days, I am sure we will find out further information regarding its processor, availability, and pricing.

It will likely launch in Korea, but markets after that remain uncertain at this time. Is anyone interested in a PMP with a 5.8 inch display?
